Coming up on August 15 at 4.00pm Pacific Time, I will be presenting my session “Things you didn’t know data merge could do” to the Los Angeles InDesign User Group (LAIDUG). While I’d love to be there in person (and so would my credit card company) I will be beaming in live via Zoom from Colecandoo HQ.
While the session is being broadcast live in the afternoon/evening within the USA/Canada, this session is also convenient for the East Coast of Australia at the alternate time of 9.00am on August 16; or if in New Zealand, 11.00am.
This feature-length session will go into depths of data merge to achieve more than just names and addresses within a mail merge. Features will include:
- autofit type for specific frame sizes within a Data Merge (square pegs in round holes);
- change colors of type, QR codes, and even some graphics during a data merge;
- prepare bar graphs for use with data merge;
- swapping out paragraphs or layouts during a data merge;
- scripts that you can use to assist you with data merge;
- variable heat maps with data merge;
- and much more!
I’ll also be available to take questions after the event, so make sure to watch. Register free here!
